Life Style

Lifestyle irregularities are the root cause of all types of problems in our life. In todays world, it is very important to maintain a disciplined and simple lifestyle. As far as skin care is concerned, our lifestyle diet is the number one factor. Wrong eating habits such as too much of junk food, eating at irregular intervals, immobility i.e. sitting at one place for long hours, lack of exercise, too much intake of tea, coffee, alcohol, not having sufficient amount of fruits and vegetables. All these small factors though, if we take proper care and planning can help our skin to remain glowing and healthy. It plays a vital role in anti- ageing.

Natural Air

During summers, one thing we never let off our hand is, remote of our air conditioners. Like whenever possible we prefer to remain in air condition, it may be our home, cars, shopping malls, gyms, offices. This problem is prevalent not only in western countries like U.S.A. or Canada, even in other Asian and African countries. The negative effects of spending long hours in air conditioners are, they reduce moisture levels in air, causing dryness of skin. Then our skin is more vulnerable to skin infections. They also prevents sweating. Sweating is natural way of our body to remove toxins. So, please try to move out of your Ac rooms at least for some times during the day frequently. Take a walk, go to the parks, garden.

Bathing

In summer, make it a rule to bath daily at least once in a day. Water has its natural benefits. It cools our body, keeps it clean, healthy and stress free. Apply little oil or Aloe Vera gel both before and after bath. If your skin is oily, don’t apply after bath. Water will rejuvenate your skin. Avoid using hard soaps, go for good quality mild cleansers or herbal soaps.
